Task 2 (10 points)Read the lifestyle article and decide whether each statement (1-10) is true (T), false (F) or not mentioned (NM), according to the text. Tick (√) the appropriate box. An example (0) has been given.

CHANGE

Change is difficult and scary. Unfortunately, change is also critical to our continued happiness as humans. Even if we cannot bring ourselves to embrace change, we should try not to avoid it at all costs. Experts and people who have made major life changes share their views on change.

Claudia, a 20-year-old student from London, had received a scholarship to study chemistry in one of the top universities in the country and was on a tour there with her mother when she broke down. “My mum looked at me and said: ‘You seem so unhappy.’” Claudia confessed she had been having doubts about the chosen course. “I had been having panic attacks, and at that moment I decided it was best not to go ahead with it,” she remembers. She went home that evening and applied for London College of Fashion. What Claudia had not expected was that so many people would tell her she was making a mistake. “My friends thought I was mad,” she says. Despite this, Claudia stands by her decision. “I just had that feeling in my gut. It’s been really hard, and there have definitely been times this year where I’ve thought: what have I done? But, overall, it’s better for me.”

If you are unhappy with your life and are thinking about making a major change, hammer out exactly what you hope to achieve by ripping things up and starting afresh. “Ask yourself: am I running away from something or walking towards something?” says Dr Carole Pemberton, a career coach and personal-resilience expert. “Be clear about why you’re doing this and why it matters to you. That has to be your anchor. When things are challenging and you’re experiencing doubt, you need an anchor to hold on to, to remind you why you’re doing this.”

“Just before the decision was the hardest time,” says 26-year-old Catherine Offord. She quit her PhD to work as an English teacher in Micronesia in 2019. “Afterwards, it felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I didn’t regret it once.” One thing that had been holding Offord back was a feeling of failure for not completing her PhD, even though she was not enjoying the course. Over time, she realised that her happiness was more important than seeing something through for the sake of it. It helped to break down the decision into manageable steps. “It felt really overwhelming to make a decision that would potentially affect the rest of my life. It paralysed me. But when I decided that I was only going to make a decision affecting the next year that was really helpful.”

The first time 30-year-old Victor Bryant got into a cockpit, he froze. Formerly a journalist from the UK, he is training in New Zealand to be a pilot. “I was absolutely petrified. I thought: Oh my god, what have I done? However, don’t bottle everything up. When you’re overwhelmed, it’s tempting to hide yourself away and have a good cry. My advice would be to get out there and socialise with people.” One way to get over the weirdness is to focus on your new life. “Throw yourself into whatever you’re doing that’s new,” says Bryant. “If you have moved somewhere completely new, try to befriend as many people as possible. You need to have supporters. People who will give you emotional support, but can also give you a shake and a loving boost if you’re having wobbles.”

“Self-doubt is a necessary component of any major life change,” says Gurpreet Singh, a therapist at a counselling charity. “Use your strength to overcome those feelings. A lot of good can come out of making mistakes,” says Singh. At the same time according to Pemberton, “A good way to conquer doubt is to work on your emotional resilience, but a big thing that undermines emotional resilience is overthinking. If something goes wrong, or you have a vision of how you want your life to be and it hasn’t worked out, try not to go over the things that have unsettled you. Catch your inner voice when it is saying: this is a disaster, I’ve ruined my life. A more useful thought to have is: this feeling will pass.”

Claudia knew that not choosing the top university was the right thing to do, because she did not want to find herself a decade down the line doing what she hated. “Life is too short, and it’s important to be happy,” she explains.

“It’s been really good for me,” says Bryant about his life change. “It has given me the power to do something totally different with my life.” Mostly, he has learned that, if you are unhappy with your life, you have to take a leap of faith. “You can’t just sit there and think life will improve by itself. You’re the only one who can make positive changes in your life. You have to go out and do it.”

EXPLORING ROTTERDAM

It was still a couple of hours till dawn when we dropped anchor in the Hook of Holland. Snow covered everything and the flakes blew in a slant across the cones of the lamps and confused the glowing discs that spaced out the untrodden quay. (0) I . I was still the only passenger in the train and this solitary entry, under cover of night and hushed by snow, completed the illusion that I was slipping into Rotterdam, and into Europe, through a secret door.

I wandered about the silent lanes in exultation. (1)______; then the eaves drew away from each other and frozen canals threaded their way through a succession of hump-backed bridges. Snow was piling up on the shoulders of a statue of Erasmus. Trees and masts were dispersed in clumps and the polygonal tiers of an enormous and elaborate gothic tower soared above the steep roofs. (2)______.

The lanes opened on the Boomjes, a long quay lined with trees and capstans, and this in its turn gave on a wide arm of the Maas and an infinity of dim ships. Seagulls mewed and wheeled overhead and dipped into the lamplight, scattering their small footprints on the muffled cobblestones and settled in the rigging of the anchored boats in little explosions of snow. (3)______. A shutter went up and a stout man in clogs opened a glass door, deposited a tabby on the snow and, turning back, began lighting a stove inside. The cat went in again at once; (4)______. I made a second long entry in my journal – it was becoming a passion – and while the landlord polished his glasses and cups and arranged them in glittering ranks, dawn broke, with the snow still coming down against the lightening sky. (5)______. The landlord asked where I was going. I said: ‘Constantinople.’ His brows went up and he signalled to me to wait: then he set out two small cups and filled them with dark strong coffee. He emptied his at once; I took some time to finish mine. With his wishes for godspeed in my ears and a hand smarting from his valedictory shake, I set off. (6)______.

I hadn’t gone far before the open door of the Groote Kirk – the cathedral attached to the enormous belfry – beckoned me inside. Filled with dim early morning light, the concavity of grey masonry and whitewash joined in pointed arches high overhead, and the floor diminished along the nave in a chessboard of black and white flagstones. (7)______ that my mind’s eye instantaneously furnished the void with those seventeenth-century groups which should have been sitting or strolling there: burghers with pointed corn-coloured beards, conferring gravely with their wives and their children, still as chessmen, in black broadcloth and identical honeycomb ruffs under the tremendous hatchmented pillars. Except for this church, the beautiful city was to be destroyed a few years later. (8)______.

You have 2 minutes to prepare.Speaking time: 5 minutes.

TEXT 1: SLEEPAdolescents need about 9 hours of sleep a night to function optimally – to be physically, mentally and cognitively healthy. Tell this to nine out of ten teenagers and they will laugh. In fact, only about 8 percent of American teenagers get the sleep they need, according to a recent study in the Journal of Adolescent Health. The rest live with chronic sleep deprivation – some mild to moderate, but more than half (59%) with severe sleep deprivation, meaning they sleep on average six hours or less most school nights.

www.childmind.org

• Is having a daily routine important for physical and mental wellbeing? • Why do teenagers sometimes sacrifice sleep for other activities?

TEXT 2: PROCRASTINATIONAccording to traditional thinking, procrastinators (people who delay or put things off) have a time management problem. Increasingly, however, psychologists are realising this is wrong. Experts at Carleton University have proposed that procrastination is an issue with managing our emotions, not our time. The task we are putting off is making us feel bad – perhaps it is boring, too difficult or we are worried about failing – and to make ourselves feel better in the moment, we start doing something else, like watching videos.

www.bbc.com

• What advice would you give to someone who tends to procrastinate? • What do you do to make sure you use your time effectively?

TEXT 3: CONSUMERISMExcessive consumerism has been a part of YouTube culture for close to a decade. Some videos feature YouTubers showing off their purchases, while “unboxing” videos feature people constantly buying and opening new things on camera. On top of all of this, vloggers create direct adverts for brands and sell their own personal merchandise. It seems logical that this incredible display of materialism is affecting at least some of the young audience that make up YouTubers’ most loyal fans.

www.newstatesman.com

• How does advertising affect our lives?• Who suffers and who benefits from consumerism?



TEXT 4: JOBSA global study has found that teenagers are ignoring digital jobs and aspiring to work in the most popular, traditional occupations, like teachers, doctors or vets, despite major changes to the world of work. Young people’s career expectations have become more concentrated in fewer occupations over the past two decades despite the rise of social media and technologies like Artificial Intelligence. Traditional occupations from the 19th and 20th centuries, such as lawyers and police officers, continue to capture the imaginations of young people around the world as they did nearly 20 years ago.

www.independent.co.uk

• What occupations will always be there? Why? • Is it better to be self-employed or work as an employee?

TEXT 5: EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCEEmotional intelligence refers to a person’s ability to recognize, understand, manage, and reason with emotions. It is a critical ability when it comes to interpersonal communication – and a hot topic not only in psychology but also in the business world. Emotional intelligence is widely recognized as a valuable asset that helps improve communication, management, problem solving, and relationships within the workplace. It is also an ability that researchers believe can be improved with training and practice.

www.verywellmind.com

• What factors can contribute to happiness in the workplace?• Why is it important to help and support others at work?

TEXT 6: PHYSICAL EXERCISEMore than 80% of global teens do not get at least one hour of daily exercise, according to a UN health agency study. The findings have implications for physical and mental health as well as youth education. “We have had this electronic revolution that seems to have changed adolescents’ movement patterns and encourages them to sit more, to be less active, to drive more, walk less and be less active in general,” World Health Organization lifestyle disease expert Leanne Riley told a news briefing.

www.dw.com

• What advice would you give to someone who would like to make their lifestyle more active?• Do you think there should be a law that requires everyone to exercise?

Task 2Monologue

Task instructions:Read the text. Then in your own words:



TEXT 1: SLEEPAdolescents need about 9 hours of sleep a night to function optimally – to be physically, mentally and cognitively healthy. Tell this to nine out of ten teenagers and they will laugh. In fact, only about 8 percent of American teenagers get the sleep they need, according to a recent study in the Journal of Adolescent Health. The rest live with chronic sleep deprivation – some mild to moderate, but more than half (59%) with severe sleep deprivation, meaning they sleep on average six hours or less most school nights.

TEXT 2: PROCRASTINATIONAccording to traditional thinking, procrastinators (people who delay or put things off) have a time management problem. Increasingly, however, psychologists are realising this is wrong. Experts at Carleton University have proposed that procrastination is an issue with managing our emotions, not our time. The task we are putting off is making us feel bad – perhaps it is boring, too difficult or we are worried about failing – and to make ourselves feel better in the moment, we start doing something else, like watching videos.

TEXT 3: CONSUMERISM Excessive consumerism has been a part of YouTube culture for close to a decade. Some videos feature YouTubers showing off their purchases, while “unboxing” videos feature people constantly buying and opening new things on camera. On top of all of this, vloggers create direct adverts for brands and sell their own personal merchandise. It seems logical that this incredible display of materialism is affecting at least some of the young audience that make up YouTubers’ most loyal fans.

TEXT 4: JOBSA global study has found that teenagers are ignoring digital jobs and aspiring to work in the most popular, traditional occupations, like teachers, doctors or vets, despite major changes to the world of work. Young people’s career expectations have become more concentrated in fewer occupations over the past two decades despite the rise of social media and technologies like Artificial Intelligence. Traditional occupations from the 19th and 20th centuries, such as lawyers and police officers, continue to capture the imaginations of young people around the world as they did nearly 20 years ago.

TEXT 5: EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE Emotional intelligence refers to a person’s ability to recognize, understand, manage, and reason with emotions. It is a critical ability when it comes to interpersonal communication – and a hot topic not only in psychology but also in the business world. Emotional intelligence is widely recognized as a valuable asset that helps improve communication, management, problem solving, and relationships within the workplace. It is also an ability that researchers believe can be improved with training and practice.

TEXT 6: PHYSICAL EXERCISE More than 80% of global teens do not get at least one hour of daily exercise, according to a UN health agency study. The findings have implications for physical and mental health as well as youth education. “We have had this electronic revolution that seems to have changed adolescents’ movement patterns and encourages them to sit more, to be less active, to drive more, walk less and be less active in general,” World Health Organization lifestyle disease expert Leanne Riley told a news briefing.

TEXT 1: LAZINESSIt is a cruel fact in present-day society that some of the best activities imaginable – napping on the sofa, watching your favourite movie, reading a book with a cat on your knee that occasionally paws the pages – are considered lazy or unworthwhile. Actually, according to experts, laziness might in fact be good for your health. Spending a little time away from your desk, or muting your emails for a few hours, or finally allowing yourself to relax might actually benefit your brain and body.

www.bustle.com

• What can be done to achieve a good work-life balance?• In what ways can enjoying life away from work affect your performance at work?

TEXT 2: CAREER CHOICE“Follow your passion” is one of the most frequently repeated bits of work advice. It is also one of the most frequently criticized, and for good reason. Experts suggest that, for most of us, hard work makes us passionate for a field rather than the other way around. We develop passion for what we do over time, rather than starting out with a clear, defined passion for a particular career path. Chasing passion, in other words, tends to make us less satisfied at work because work is often difficult, draining, and even boring. All you need to do is substitute “purpose” for “passion” when considering your path.

www.businessinsider.com

• What helps people choose one profession over another? Please explain. • Can financial benefits compensate for a boring job? Why/Why not?

TEXT 3: COOPERATION VS COMPETITIONTraditionally, parents and teachers alike have believed that exposing children to harsh competition early on will prepare them for competition in adulthood. However, many researchers have found that encouraging cooperation in the classroom actually leads to greater, more lasting achievement among students. Studies have shown that working in small groups toward a common goal instructs children more appropriately for their roles in the business world, which is becoming increasingly team-oriented.

www.skillsyouneed.com

• Do you agree that competition brings out the best in products and the worst in people? Why/Why not?• Why can cooperation be sometimes difficult in the workplace?



TEXT 4: HOBBIESNew research claims that hobbies can help you feel happier and younger. Professor Robert Root-Bernstein found that hobbies that involved visual thinking, learning from doing rather than just thinking, and art and music made people more successful. Another study found that having a hobby may also result in your brain being more functional when you are older and living longer too. People also feel better physically and are less likely to be depressed.

www.psychologytoday.com

• Has technology had any influence on people’s hobbies?• In what ways can hobbies help your career?

TEXT 5: NETIQUETTEThe word netiquette is a combination of ’net’ (from internet) and ’etiquette’. A survey carried out for MSN has found some shocking lapses of etiquette in the messages passed around by people under 25. Many youngsters have no idea of what counts as proper manners when writing a digital message. Few people change their writing style when typing formal and informal messages. About 16% sign every e-mail with love and kisses, even when addressing their boss.

www.news.bbc.co.uk

• Should netiquette be taught at school? • Can having good manners help you become successful? How?

TEXT 6: READINGJust like muscles, the brain benefits from a good workout. As you are reading this text, several parts of the brain responsible for vision, language, and associative learning connect in a specific brain circuit for reading, which is very challenging. In general, your intelligence is activated, as is greater concentration. We are forced to construct, to follow a sequence of events, to imagine.

TEXT 1: CULTURE SHOCKWhen you move to another country, you may often feel disoriented, vulnerable and anxious in unfamiliar surroundings. It is important to think positively as these challenges are also opportunities for you to develop a set of life skills which can help you to overcome future problems. It can be beneficial to join different social, sporting and cultural activities, which provide opportunities to socialise, enjoy and develop language skills.

www.visionpsychology.com

• Is globalization creating a single world culture? Why/Why not? • How should you prepare for a foreign trip in order to make the most of it?

TEXT 2: MULTITASKINGGood focus is supposed to be like a laser beam, steadily trained on a single target. For many of us, it is more like a broken disco ball spinning out-of-control. Researchers found that the brain cannot actually process multiple tasks in parallel but switches rapidly between tasks. Psychologists estimate that, beyond the simplest of activities, task-switching can decrease our efficiency by up to 40%. When we attempt to do many things at the same time instead of a series of things one-at-a-time, we get less done.

www.cbc.ca

• Is there an activity on which you can spend hours? Please explain. • Does multitasking still remain a necessary skill? Please explain.

TEXT 3: PERFECTIONISM Many of us believe perfectionism is a positive quality. Thomas Curran, PhD and Andrew Hill, PhD define perfectionism as “an irrational desire for achievement along with being overly critical of oneself and others.” They explain that today’s generation has “the strong need” to achieve “increasingly unrealistic educational and professional expectations”. Resisting perfectionism does not mean giving up your quest to do well, or that you have to give up ambition, but overdoing it can have negative consequences.


• Which is more important for success – competition or cooperation? Why? • What is the role of social media in creating unrealistic expectations?



TEXT 4: ARMCHAIR TRAVELIn today’s world the term ‘armchair travel’ has gained broad popularity. With people travelling less for a variety of reasons, many are seeking ways to have worldly experiences through other means. Armchair travel is all about discovering the world without actually going anywhere. Whether that is through virtual experiences, planning a future trip or bringing the world into your home, there are many ways to do it, such as reading, watching films or travel podcasts.

• What thing do you usually notice when you visit somewhere for the first time?• Why do people like to travel?

TEXT 5: FITNESS AND LEARNINGAccording to Dr. John J. Ratey, an associate clinical professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, exercise improves learning on three levels: “First, it optimizes your mind-set to improve alertness, attention, and motivation; second, it prepares nerve cells for logging in new information; and third, it activates the development of new nerve cells.” In short, not only does exercise help the brain get ready to learn but it actually makes retaining information easier.

It is interesting how teens’ spending habits change when it is their own, rather than their parents’ money. They also take better care of clothes and other items that they buy on their own. Having a good part time job is also good for learning time management skills, developing confidence, learning about the world of work, and building a resume.
